Nutritional Values:
One egg has 13 essential nutrients in varying amounts – including high-quality protein, choline, folate, iron and zinc – for 70 calories. Eggs also play a role in weight management, muscle strength, healthy pregnancy, brain function, eye health and more.All of the egg's vitamin A, D, and E are in the egg yolk.
Ingredients:
Eggs - 4
Onion - 1 big
Cinamon stick - quater inch (according to your tatse)
Elaichi - 1
Clove - 1
Garlic - 4 pods
Ginger Garlic paste - 1 tsp
Peanut powder - 1/2 tsp
Red chili powder - 1/2 tsp
Turmeric Powder - A pinch
Salt - As per taste
Oil - 2 tsp
1.Grind 3/4 onion to fine paste & chop the remaining onion (make sure you chop it very fine ).
2.Grind garlic,clove, elaichi/cardamom, cinnamon stick.
3.Heat pan and add oil . Once its hot add the above garlic mixture fry it for 2 min until the raw smell of garlic goes away.
4.Add onion paste ,and cook it , add ginger garlic paste after 3min check if the onion paste is completely cooked because you don't want your curry smelling of onion.
5. Now its time to add turmeric ,chili powder,salt,peanut powder and mix all the spices properly . Cook the mixture for 5 mins and add 3-4 cups of water.
6. Wait for the water to boil check the seasoning add if anything is required. The gravy/shorva should be almost 70% cooked because after adding eggs you cook in slow flame.
7.Now when you think the gravy is almost done its time to add eggs , reduce the heat to low break the eggs and drop it in the gravy carefully the yoke should not separate .Repeat the process with all eggs , but make sure you leave enough space between the eggs to cook properly. Cover the pan.
8.After 5 mins check the eggs and flip them carefully cover the lid cook it for 5 more mins and switch off the heat.
9.Yummy egg curry is ready to serve.
Can be served with rice/roti's . I prefer rice over rotis for this particular gravy.

@Satya do try it , you have to be careful while adding eggs,do not crowd them leave some space.
@Josh try it and let me know. I've never eaten quail eggs why don't you post in your blog that would be great.
This is very new and adding egg would be great task for me, but will give it a try on a egg craving day :)
@Ananda adding eggs is easy you just need to open the shell and drop the eggs in gravy and cook them covered.Try it and let me know your experience in making this dish .
